Smart Move! Friday Farmers Market Now On Main Street

Great new higher-visibility prime location on City Hall Plaza at the Center/Main Street Valley Metro Light Rail Station directly across from the Mesa Arts Center.
CHECK IT OUT
Gotta admit that your MesaZona blogger stopped going to these weekly events. Without getting into negatives about that - let's just say the Mesa Community Farmers Market is getting back to their roots on Main Street with an amazing line-up of new vendors producing mostly organic, non-GMO and all that other good stuff like vegan, sugar-free, raw/unprocessed, in start-up small-business/single owner enterprises . . . the New Economy  [or the home-grown version of that] is transplanted here in the New Urban Downtown Mesa at least once a week into an area that really needs what is offered.
There's been some talk about getting a food co-op started downtown > time will tell, but at least once a week is somewhere to start, Huh?

Got into conversations with:
